4 WWE Superstars have officially confirmed their departure from NXT

Triple H has consistently claimed that WWE is in a new era prior to recent episodes of RAW and SmackDown. This was not the case, as most of the top heroes kept their current gold and characters.

One way the game slightly changed the landscape of the three brands was by officially promoting a few stars from NXT. Without an official draft in 2025, some performers have emerged at various points throughout the year.

Stephanie Faker, Julia, Roxanne Perez and Fraxium all joined the main roster around WrestleMania. NXT GM Ava confirmed towards the end of New Year’s Evil that the following four names have officially joined the WWE main roster.

#4. Lash Legend joined Nia Jax on SmackDown Live

While the promotion occurred several months ago, Ava Lash added Legend as one of the stars to officially move on from NXT. She stated that these promotions also opened up call slots from Evolve.

These moves should also create opportunities for other stars rather than the same two or three getting all the major shots.

Legend was the only member of Meta-Four to recover from the group’s breakup. Her imposing nature and reckless attitude make her a perfect ally for Nia Jax.

#3. Jevon Evans joined Raw last night

WWE officials made sure that all fans knew about Jevon Evans. He competed on every brand in one week leading up to the final edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event. This came at the cost of pushing other superstars away from NXT.

He has had numerous shots at the NXT and North American titles but has come up short every time. Names like Lexis King, Josh Briggs and others were ready, and staying in NXT could have given Evans a potential shot at a title shot.

However, Adam Pearce announced The Young OG as the newest member of RAW during a commercial break on Netflix’s one-year anniversary show. Who will fill his spot as one of the favorites to book?

#2. Jordynne Grace was always ready for the main WWE roster

Grace was a known commodity before officially joining NXT last year. She competed in each of the last two Royal Rumble contests, impressing regular WWE fans when she lifted Piper Niven into the middle of the ring.

Despite her personality and abilities, The Juggernaut was constantly challenged for titles but always failed. With the number of times belts have been exchanged between owners over the past few months, she could have easily benefited from one of those situations.

After appearing on both NXT and SmackDown last week, Ava confirmed that Grace has signed with the blue brand during New Year’s Evil.

#1. A move by Trick Williams was imminent

Williams has dominated NXT programming over the past two years, winning the NXT Championship twice as well as the TNA World Championship and the North American Title. His last six months were filled with constant title matches that he lost.

Given his quirky attitude, Trick Willy would fit any WWE brand. Since he hasn’t appeared on shows much over the past few months, it seemed like a promotion was on the horizon.

After appearing on RAW and SmackDown over the past two weeks, the former two-time NXT Champion officially joined the blue brand last week. Rey will face Fenix ​​in his first match on SmackDown this week.
